Bright minds and hearts, I thought were enough
To light up a room of pitch black
Drowning in fears, hearing them laugh
The demons inside, they attack
In the light of day, shadows forecast
Failures, fears, weakness, and mistrust
Stepping on rocks, trying to crush it
Cuts in the flesh, skin left unblemished
Envy, discontent, and misery
Is what makes it very hard to see
Just a glint of hope will it ever be
That one day I'll be as good as they are already
They say it's in me, the best I'll ever meet
But in the end, it is my defeat.
